Commercial Description:
Oak Aged Lager.
Named from the Flemish word for Oak, Eiken Artois is a deliciously refreshing yet full flavoured oak aged lager brewed in Belgium to 4.6% ABV. Brewed with carefully selected aroma hops, this unique beer is then oak aged to create a fruity, hoppy lager with subtle floral notes and hints of vanilla.

Light, dry yet with a sweet flavour. Hints of vanilla icecream and lager hops. It’s OK - it’s drinkable - it’s the marketing buzz of the moment - from oak aged imperial stout to oak aged pale lager - everyone is getting in on the act. Fizzy.

On tap at Ye Grapes, London. Gold body, no heat. Malty nose. Some caramel in the taste, otherwise eggy. Watery and not much to it. Dissapointment.

Bottle. Pretty bad really. Crappy lager base and some oakyness i guess. Pretty sure this won’t last long on the market. Couldn’t really see the point. Boring?

Tap at The Dovetail in London. Light orange amber color with a white head. Grassy aroma. Near medium body with mild carbonation. Seems to thin a bit as carbonation leaves. Flavor is lightly fruity and the wood is very subtle. A lager that could pass for an English ale.

Free sample in Tescos and all i want of this ... orange ... light sweet lager nose ... basic lageryness i dont get any wood at all nor any complexity.
